The present invention is a decorative laminated article comprising an image bearing thermoplastic interlayer wherein the image has been printed on the interlayer using an ink jet printing process, wherein the pigment comprises at least one pigment selected from the group consisting of: PY 120; PY 155; PY 128; PY 180; PY 95; PY 93; PV19/PR 202; PR 122; PB 15:4; PB 15:3; and PBI 7. The interlayer material of the present invention can be, for example, PVB, PET, or polyurethane.

Decorative laminated safety glass

The present invention pertains to a radiation-curable white inkjet ink and, more particularly, to a radiation-curable inkjet white ink comprising a specified titanium dioxide with at least two dispersants. The first is an acidic polyester dispersant and the second is an acrylic structured copolymer dispersant. Ink sets containing the white inks are also described.

Curable white inkjet ink

The present invention pertains to an aqueous inkjet ink made from certain aqueous titanium dioxide slurries, and an associated inkjet ink set for inkjet printing. The invention also pertains to a method of inkjet printing with the ink and ink set. The use of the specific titanium dioxide slurries described herein result in inkjet inks having improved stability and better anti-settling performance with less pigment agglomeration and flocculation over time.

Ink jet ink

The present invention is a decorative laminated article including an image bearing thermoplastic interlayer wherein the image has been printed on the interlayer using an ink jet printing process, wherein the image includes a white pigment on the surface of the thermoplastic interlayer. The present invention is also a process for ink-jet printing white pigment ink on a thermoplastic polymer to obtain an image bearing laminate with good adhesive qualities.

The present invention is a decorative glass laminate comprising a rigid interlayer bearing a printed image that has been ink-jetted onto at least one of the interlayer surfaces, and a process for preparing same. The interlayer has a storage young's modulus of 50&#x2013;1000 Mla at 0.3 Hz and 25 C, as determined according to ASTM D 5026-95a and a finite thickness of less than equal to about 0.38 mm.

Ink-jet printed rigid interlayer and a process for preparing same

This invention pertains to an ink set for inkjet printing, in particular to a non-aqueous ink set comprising one or more inks based on certain pigment colorants. The invention also pertains to a method of inkjet printing with this ink set.

Non-aqueous inkjet ink set

A method of making an ink jet ink that entails combining a water miscible organic solvent, water, and a pigment dispersion, and blending the water miscible organic solvent, the water, and the pigment dispersion together to form the ink jet ink, wherein the ink jet ink is capable of exhibiting no pigment precipitation, no pigment agglomeration, and no pigment flocculation after being stored in the absence of any agitation for a period of at least about 1 month.

Pigmented inks and a method of making pigmented inks

A method of printing an image on a substrate with an ink jet printer, the method including the step of ejecting a plurality of discrete portions of ink from the ink jet printer toward the substrate, the ink including at least three different inks with each ink of each different pair of inks containing either different dyes or different concentrations of the same dye, and the step of sequentially forming a plurality of layers of ink dots on the substrate using the discrete portions of ink, with adjacent layers having overlapping ink dots formed of different inks, the plurality of layers of ink dots constituting the image, and the image fully covering all portions of the substrate beneath the image.

Method of selecting an ink set of an ink jet printer

A method of forming a printing ink, the method including combining a nitrogen-containing cyclic organic compound, a glycol ether or a glycol ether acetate, and a colorant; and homogeneously blending the nitrogen-containing cyclic organic compound, the glycol ether or the glycol ether acetate, and the colorant to form the ink jet printing ink.
